LYNCHING AND LAwMAK rs.

Lynch law is violation of public
order which every good citizen de-
plores. The cause which leads to that
8 re Of violence is more deplorable
still, for 1t Is the failure 80 to execute
law as to make law coincident with
justice. A crime is committed that
arouses public indignation, and where
there Is no confidence that the courts
viii do what justice requires in the
case, the impulslve psIt Of the com.
muuity take the matter in band and
do justice Ia their own wild way. The
remedy for lynch law, therefore, is
Legislation that will insure quick and
sure punishment Of the guilty. There
is 10 necessity for such delays and
evasions az are common among us.
Other countries administer law with
out them, end strict justice Is done in
those countries as perfectly, at least,
as in the United States, and what
other countries can do we in this
country are capable Of doing also. To
ssy that mob law is sn unavoidable
thing and cannot be repressed is to
contradict what the experience Of
countries that avoid the imperfect ap-
plication Of law we permit, shows to
be true. Where the law is good and
we'll administered, the people put full
confidence in the law, and lynching is
unknown. Yet we find one OF the
Legislators OF Tennessee, speaking from
his place in the capitol, speaking Of
mob law as necessity and uDpre-
ventible, instead Of speaking OF it as a
wrong which ought to be prevented
by so arranging the law and so reform
ing the courts as to give the people
confidence In the law, looking to it for
speedy and exact justice. The Ten
nesses legislator We sllude to on Tues
day last Is thus reported in that days
telegraphio alb. tract OF the proceed.
ipgs OF the House: "There was q clGss
OF cases in which, regardless Of law, a
community would take the law into
It's own hands" This class was that OF
outrages against women. "Civiizsd
communities, to free her OF such in
dignity, took the law into their own
hands" "He," the legislator contin
Ut d, chad rather lead the mob in such
q case than be the man that prose
cuted the mob PHILOSOPHERS and
reason as one might, the people
would take the law into their hands
In cases Of SEDUCTION during 200 years
there was not casa on record where
the slayer OF the seducer had been
convicted. He trusted that would still
continue 20 for the next 200-ye'
1000 " ars." This ia certainly strang,
language to come from the lips of 1
man engaged in the very act of Law
making, the more so as Gov. Taylor
in his admirable message, called aten
ton TO the importance of the Legiels
ture enaotlng law to punish the
crime OF seduction. Lynch law is moi
q necessity, and it can be prevented
bat that prevention is not likely tc
c,me from legislators who entertain
notions such as are expressed in the
words coppd above.

panies are cold and calculating and
do not bury the dead, save for
profit. What the people Of Memphis
must do Is to get their heads out Of
the halter thrown about them by the
present Water Company, and make 1t
so that they cannot be tied by another
halter all the way from New York, a
Bullock halter, a speculstor's halter,
the strength Of which woulo lie in per-

OF the Taxing District.

Orchard and Fruit Garden.

II the area Of orchard Is 10 be extended,
the matter should be considered and ar
ranged for at once; but the first matter
should be to care for the trees we have,
and see to their preservation during win
ter---Care for fences and gates. Gates
had better be fastened with piece Of wire,
as latches' are rarely cattle proof Young
trees should have mound of earth foot
or more high drawn mp around the base of
the trunk. This will stiffen them against
heavy winds and keep off mice--Trap or
shoot rabbits while they are fat and fit for
market or the table-Where the weather
will allow, and the soil is not frozen trees
may be planted. If our advice has been
followed, trees, whether for planting now
or next spring, we're ordered this fall; pro-
perly heeled in, they are just as safe as in
the nursery, and are at hand to be planted
whenever it is esirable--Blackberri
and other fruit-bearing shrubs may be
planted now and save time in the spring
Apples in barrels should not be placed
in the cellar until danger of freezing, and
keep the cellar near thirty-two degrees, by
opening on all mild days-Prune grape
vines and currant bushes on mild days. II
cuttings are wanted, make at once, tie in
bundles, label, and bury in a dry place
where they will not freeze--Cover the
earth between the rows of strawberry
plants, when it begins to freeze. with
straw or marsh hay.

Ordinarily the weekly issue of daily

This is not true in reference to the Week

Not word of crime or impure sugges-
tion in any part of the paper,
1t is an old paper and carries its age and
reputation equally well.
Now we are seeking new and larger
number of readers. AS an indueement to
this end the Weekly Press In connection
with any four dollar magazine in America
will be sent for the single subscription price
of such magazine.

Keep Cisterns Clean.

With some precautions, cistsrn water is
quite free from objection The precautions
to be observed are to have the cistern on
high ground and safe from ingress of sur
face water, and to haye an automatic ar
rangement for diverting the flow from the
roof at the first part of the shower, which
washes the filth from the gu ers. A sur
prisingly large quantity of waste matter
will gather on a roof in a short time. At
dust, pollen from trees and
plants. droppings Of birds, insects, small
dead animals, and the wear of the roof
covering, and all these are washed in'o the
cistern with the first part of the shower,
and make the water extremely filthy. A
cistern often becomes collection of filth,
which renders the water wholly unfit for
drink.

Exclusive Grain Diet for Fowls.

There is no more wisdom in confning
poultry exclusively to grain diet than IN
keeping animals on food deyoid of bulk.
In the growing season, the hens eat grass,
grain, seeds, and insects, and in winter
they may be given more bulky food than
they usually receive, and at less cost than
that of feeding grain exclusively. Ifclover
hay be finely cut, boiling water poured
oyer it, and the mess sprinkled with =
mixture of ground grain, and seasoned with
a little salt, they eat 1t willingly, and it
affords an agreeable variety. The clover
also largely assists in supplying albumen to
the eggs, while the health of the fowls 10
promoted by the food not being very con-
centrated. No doubt some may consider
such feed as suitable only for a COW or
horse. but it is also good for poultry. If
hens are kept on corn they become exceed
ingly fat, and as unfit fer laying as an oyer
fat animal is for breeding, but feed them
on variety which contains more Of the
fesh-forming elements than the carbonace-
Gus, and they give better results. As the
stock should be kept warm and comfortable,
so should the fowls. 1t is much cheaper to
provide suitable quarters than TO keep them
from freezing by stufiing with corn. They
will also eat dry hay, if cut into short
lengths; but is better to feed 1t moistened
and warm.
